it is early morn as eris awakes from the comfort of her warm furs.. stretching her feminine form to awaken her limbs. she rose to her feet shivering as the cool Tahari air embraced her. brushing the palms of her hands up and down her arms while stirring around her kennel..

while slipping into her work camisk, she thought of the list of chores she needed to complete.. she knew how quick time would past as she began to get busy..running her fingers through her long onyx mane to work through the tangles .. then whipping it around to her left shoulder as she took a wooden handled brush, and began to brush smoothly...

looking out her window there weren’t many in the city that had started to stir. leaving her kennel the ground was still moist from the heavy dew that fell through the night. the sand forming some to the bottom of her feet. upon reaching the Hall eris wiped the bottoms of her feet free of the sand.. brushed her hands together.. then moved inside where she was her hands thoroughly.

lifting the lid of each barrel, diligently checking to see which one needed to be replenished. On this day there was only one. eris was pleased to know she could complete this chore in one trip to the underground spring in the cave. She chose this area to fill the barrel because it was shielded from the blowing sand.

lowering herself to a squat..the guard that would accompany her to the spring, helped her to lift the barrel and balance it before they began their walk to the stream. her tiny feet padding quickly as she walked behind him.. she had become quite skilled in balancing items on her head.. she held her chin up...focusing on the path before...

before stepping inside the cave she waited for the guard to light a torch..then followed Him inside to the stream. as she looked around she could see the cave was just as they had left it after the destruction..it was still in an organized state, and supplies were plentiful. as eris began filling the barrel, she mentioned to the guard that this would be a good place to come... on a hot sunny day... *he chuckled*... indeed it would be eris.. he smirked.. as he looked around holding the torch up even higher...

glancing up to the guard as she finished filling the barrel, she noticed how His brown eyes slowly scanning over her form. they exchanged smiles..she took a rep cloth and wiped the barrel down then sealed the lid.. impishly she looked up to the guard once again.. for His help to lift the barrel.. it was somewhat heavier this time as she balanced it with His help, on top of her head...

the walk back to the Palace seemed to be quicker than the walk to the cave... The guard was rather flirtatious as they returned....the playful atmosphere helped her to keep her mind focused on other things...after she placed the barrel of water back in it’s proper place, she thanked the guard for escorting her to the cave... he assured her.. “this would not be the last time she would see him..”.....”Yes Master”, she said..

entering the palace while all were away, eris respectfully bowed to her knees with outstretched arms to kiss where the Free had walked. While on her knees, eris noticed the entrance needed to be tidied up a bit . she ran to the supply room to gather a few items.

rummaging through the supply room she gathered a stiff broom, dust pan, a hand held brush with stiff brissles, and two pails. after filling both pails with hot water, she added a few soapy flakes to one. Her slave bells ringing as she moved about the room.

as eris began sweeping around the doorway, small grains of sand darting up against her bare skin as she swept towards the edge of each step. the dirt and sand had been embedded into the carpet. After sweeping small piles on the ledge of each step, she bent at her slender waist, to brush each pile into the pan...

the water in the pails had cooled enough that eris could start t to use the hand held brush to clean the carpet. on hands and knees.. she dipped the brush into the soapy water then scrubbed the floor until all of the dirt spots were removed. eris brushed the carpet with the clear water to remove any remaining soap that was in the carpet..although it was a hot day in the Tahari, to help the carpet dry quicker, eris pressed clean rep cloths against the carpet to absorb any moisture.

She took clean cloths and wiped down the doors. They were dusty from the sand storms. Standing back a few feet to look at her work, eris was proud to have anyone enter the doors of the Oasis.. it had a welcoming appearance.

As all had gather and sat in their various place around the room she rose and took her place to perform her dance. the curls of her onyx tresses flowing over her shoulders as she leaned, forward pressing her hands to the floor to balance herself...standing tall she walks lightly across the floor,she takes a deep breath trying to relax as she positions her feet and waits for the Music to begin.

Honored that she had been called by her Ubar and Ubara on this day of celebration, to dance before the members of the city and any guest that may appear. on this particular day, unbeknownst to eris, there was a certain Master who stood at the front of the crowd... He had visited the Homestone on several occasions, and with time, had come to befriend the leaders of Two Scimitars.

eris’s femininity adorned in the sparkles of alluring sapphires and diamonds as flowers, the soft touch of her bronzed skin lightly coated with an expensive perfume, which bestowed a soft fragrance, that sparked a mans desire as it sifted through the thin air..

the sound of the music caused a swaying of her hour glass hips,as she began to move them slowly from side to side. she raised her slender arms above her head, clasping her palms together. bending arms slightly at her elbow then pushing through the air with fingers opened to give a starburst affect. the soft chiming of her slave bells rang in sync with the beat of the music, noticing how the crowd watched her every move, eris now began to feel the affect of the music..

spreading her arms wide as she twirled around on the balls of her dainty feet, onyx tresses snapped like a whip that cut through the air as she spun around..rolling her hips seductively then thrusting them to the right then to the left.. moving forward...keeping her eyes lowered as she worked her way across the room, her body glistened from the mist of her own sweat..the perfume still lingered in the air ...

her heartbeat flutters and lips curling into a sweet smile ...discovering a certain Master was in the crowd,.. dancing toward Him.. she raised the level of her performance. keeping her gaze locked into His feeling her passion rise, stirring the fire in her belly...breathing heavy as she imagined herself beneath Him....parted lips moaning, as her hips rolled in sync, a steady tempo taking her gasping breath...

fingers running through her silky tresses.. falling in a slow motions to her shoulders.. her arched back exposed her Oasis Two Scimitars collar..it sparkled like the diamonds she wore ..eris seductively shaking her full breast from side to side... her nipples firm and swollen, body excited ... begging for His strong touch...

as she spun around the music began to fade..her eyes slowing moving up the frame of the certain Master, stopping briefly at His massive chest. collapsing to her knees her thighs spread wide revealing the dew of her desire that rest in the valley of her slave heat, throbbing for just a touch...bowing her chin to the soft skin of her chest, her onyx mane falling around her face... she lifts her arms with her wrists crossed as for binding pleading for His touch...

*the Masters gaze went to her Ubar and He nodded His approval*....The deep tone of the Master's voice sent chills through her as He spoke these words.. "light a candle and place it in the window"..... she replied.. "Yes Master".....la kajira.... (the end)

while the Free were dining in the other room, eris busied herself in the kitchen. she had served them baked bosk roast with sul and carrots. the aroma of the baked larma pie still lingered in the room as she began to tidy up. she had placed a kettle of water on each fire of the stove so it would be ready for her to wash dishes once the meal was over. as she walked past the stove she could feel the heat of the fire. leaning on her tippy toes she peeked inside the kettles to see if the water had come to a boil.. she thought to herself, a few more minutes and it will be ready. after each use the barrels that were used to wash the dishes were turned over with the opening down. eris turned them over one by one on their side as she squat down to wipe the insides out with a clean rep cloth... she checked each to make sure they were still sealed, then placed them on the table where she would wash the dishes.. to one barrel she added few soapy flakes then move around to the stove to check on the water.. the steam rising from the water rapidly let her know it was ready. eris wrapped a cloth around the handle of the kettle, and placed another that was folded for thickness at the base of the kettle as she poured...her eyes squinted as she steam rolled upward towards her face...

hearing the chatter of the Free in the other room, as eris strolled into the dining room, her sparkling brown eyes checking the table for empty dishes, and to see if there was anything else she could get them before returning to the kitchen. a few of the glasses were low, in a quiet manner she reached for each glass, filling each with fresh spring water. taking another quick glance over the table, before asking the Free if they needed anything else.. they chuckled and commented on how good the meal was. each lifting their hand with a gesture of "no they didn't need anything else".

taking what dishes she could with her, eris returned to the kitchen. she took a fork and carefully began scraping what she could from each dish into the trough for the animals. the water had cooled down enough to where she could begin to wash the dishes.. one by one the Free had moved back to the throne room, and the dining room was quiet once again.. eris returned to clear the table.. she quickly washed the remaining dishes.. checking each before she placed them back into the cupboard. she worked until each pan or kettle was back into it's place, food was put away..the barrels of water were emptied and turned back to where the opening was placed upside down... before leaving the kitchen, she took the straw broom and swept the floor.... turning slowly to take a look at her work she slowly wiped her face with the palm of her hand, her lips curled into a sweet smile as she was pleased.. everything was clean once again and back in it's proper place.......
